Episode 50 - How to manage work when you don’t have the authority
from Career Espresso
In this week's episode of Career Espresso, I'm talking about influencing the performance of people who don't report to you, otherwise known as managing sideways.Think for a moment about the last time you needed to pull in a favour at work. Who was it that came to your rescue? I'd put money on it being one of your peers. The relationships we form at work help us to get stuff done when it counts most and managing sideways is about building a cooperative spirit that reaches across teams and departments. I'll share 6 ways to manage sideways and do it well, and as always I'll finish up with a coaching question. Don't forget to take a look at this week's podsheet to support and encourage further learning and exploration of the podcast topic.
